[PATCH 0/6] misc constification of strings

[Nick Clifton]

Hi Trevor,

Sorry - snafu - now fixed.

Not specifically with regard to whitespace and C types no.  In generic we
try to adhere to the GNU Coding Standards, but that does not define how 
types and variable names are separated.  I personally feel that there 
should be at least one whitespace character between the type name and the
variable name, even if that type is a pointer.  (IE "char * foo;").  But
many other people treat the asterisk as part of the variable name, when
declaring the type.  (IE: "char *foo;").

Cheers
